By the way, I'm currently working on my version of decoder (based on hip). I would like to release it under LGPL. It can be easily integrated with lame. Here are some of its features: - support for free-format streams - more output format options (16/24/32 bit and float, high/low endian, reduced sampling frequency) - forced mono or stereo mode - better resync on bad streams (as compared to mpglib) - support for replay gain - optional x86 assembly optimizations Are you interested?
